  1. The Role of Physical Activity in Obesity Management Edward R. Laskowski, M.D. Co-Director, Mayo Clinic Sports Medicine Center Professor, Department of PM&R President’s Council on Physical Fitness and Sports laskowski.edward@mayo.edu

  2. Disclosure • Nothing to disclose • No relevant financial relationships, off label, or investigational uses

  3. Objectives • Understand the breadth, scope, and ramifications of the current global epidemic of obesity and sedentary lifestyle • Discuss the specific effects of aerobic exercise on obesity • Discuss the specific effects of strength training exercise on obesity • Discuss beneficial effects of exercise independent of weight loss

  4. The Problem: Almost two-thirds (67%) of American adults are overweight or obese. In less than 30 years, the prevalence of overweight among children aged 6-19 has tripled.* Source: NHANES 1976-1980 and 2003-2004

  5. Causes of Death in the U.S. since 1990 • Tobacco use: 435,000 • Diet/PA: 400,000 • Alcohol 85,000 • Infection 75,000 • Toxic agents 55,000 • MVA 43,000 • STD 20,000 • Illicit drug use 17,000 Mokdad, JAMA, 2004

  6. U.S. Physical Activity Participation • Adults: 70% reported that they did not meet the recommendation (at least 30 minutes of moderate activity most days of the week)* • Children: 65% of high school students reported that they did not meet the recommendation (60 minutes of physical activity five ormore days/week)** *2005 National Health Interview Survey

  7. Sitting Time: An Independent Risk Factor • Association between the amount of sedentary time in an individual’s life and their overall metabolic risk • independent from time spent in moderate or vigorous activity • standing and moving around and spending less time sitting produces healthier blood lipid profiles and blood glucose levels than those who meet minimum recommended activity levels but sit for prolonged periods Hamilton, Healy 2008

  8. Dangers of Sedentary Living • Cardiovascular disease • Type 2 Diabetes • Obesity • High cholesterol • Hypertension • High blood triglycerides • Congestive Heart Failure • Breast, Colon, Pancreatic, and Prostate Cancers • Gallstone Disease • Peripheral vascular disease Physical inactivity increases the risk of developing: • Osteoporosis • Stiff joints • Anxiety and Depression • Decreased cognitive function • Sleep Problems • Physical frailty • Reducedquality oflife • Prematuredeath

  9. Prevalence* of Self-Reported Obesity Among U.S. Adults BRFSS, 2012 CDC 15%–<20%20%–<25% 25%–<30% 30%–<35% ≥35%

  10. What the future holds…. • Obese people in US will increase from 99 million in 2008 to 164 million by 2030 • Obesity rate rise from 32% to 50% for men • Obesity rate rise from 45% to 52% for women • Cost to treat obesity related disease increase $66 billion per year by 2030 • Disease burden: 7.8 million more cases DM, 6.8 million more cases CAD and stroke, 539,000 more cancers by 2030 Lancet, August 2011

  11. A Global Concern • Obesity in China: “Major health concern” WHO, 2013 Obesity rates approaching 20% in some cities Levine, 2011 • More overfed than underfed in world today WHO, 2013

  12. Morbidity of obesity • Type 2 DM: weight gain of just 11 to 18 lbs doubles risk • Osteoarthritis: for every 2 lb weight increase, risk of OA increases 9-13% • Pregnancy: obesity increases risk of gestational diabetes, labor and delivery problems, birth defects, HTN

  13. Mortality as Consequence of Obesity in Adults • BMI 30-34.0: 200-300% higher mortality than normal weight adults • BMI 25-29.9: 20-40% higher mortality than normal weight adults Adams et al, NEJM, August, 2006 • 20 years of life lost due to obesity in certain age and racial/ethnic groups CDC Economic Consequences of Obesity 2004

  14. Cost of Overweight/Obesity • $98-147 billion • $250 billion with DM2 • Average annual health care cost is 36% higher for an obese adult • Obesity more expensive to treat than tobacco, alcohol abuse Source: Partnership for Prevention. (2005). The Economic Burden of Overweight and Obesity.

  15. How much is a healthy weight worth? • Decrease heart disease: $14,990/yr in hospital inpatient stays • High cholesterol: $678/yr in meds • HTN: $559/yr in meds • Cancer: $23,184/yr in hospital inpatient stays • Joint problems/OA: $847/yr in MD visits • Pregnancy complications: $8717/yr

  16. Mayo Clinic Rochester data, 2013: • Costs of smoking: $1300/yr • Costs of obesity/morbid obesity: $1800/$4000/yr • Similar to other population data: GWU School of Public Health overweight/obesity: $346/$1474/yr

  17. Is Obesity “Genetic?” • Genetic factors can play a role in obesity development Maes, 1997 • PA associated with 40% reduction in genetic predisposition as measured by number of gene risk alleles Li, 2010 • Adolescents meeting the PAG may overcome the effect of the obesity associated gene polymorphism on obesity related traits Ruiz, 2010

  18. Your Genes Are Not Your Fate “Comprehensive lifestyle changes significantly increase telomerase activity and consequently telomere maintenance capacity in human immune-system cells” Ornish D The Lancet Oncology, Volume 9, Is 11 November 2008

  19. Adult Minimum Physical Activity Needs • 150 minutes moderate activity a week; 75 minutes vigorous activity • Interval training effective • Can “accumulate” activity throughoutthe day • Strength training shouldalso be included PA Guidelines HHS, Oct. 2008

  20. Is Exercise Effective in the Treatment of Obesity? • Complex problem to study: diet/caloric intake, duration of study, adherence to program, and type, volume, and intensity of exercise are all variables • Weight loss achieved by change in energy balance: reduction in calories in, increase in calories burned, or both

  21. Aerobic Exercise Effects • Aerobic exercise alone produces weight loss, but gains smaller (<3%) if not combined with calorie restrictionMoineddin 2012 • PA alone less effective than diet alone or diet plus PAWing, Jakicic 1998 • PA alone has not been proven to produce significant weight loss, especially when “dose” of PA is similar to PAG of 150 minutes/week Lee, JAMA, 2010

  22. Aerobic Exercise Effects • Single bout of aerobic exercise (2 hrs at 60% VO2 max) reduced VLDL-TG by 30% • Acute exercise superior to calorie restriction in lowering blood lipid levels, at least over the short term (MSSE, 2013) • 2 hours PA to see effect; 30 minutes not enough to improve plasma TG after single bout

  23. Aerobic Activity and Weight Gain Prevention • Women successful at maintaining normal weight and limiting weight gain over 15 years averaged 300 minutes/week of moderate intensity activity Lee, JAMA, 2010 • 150 minutes PA/week not enough to limit weight gain if no caloric restriction • BMI >40: significant weight loss and reduction in cardiac risk factors with diet and 300 min/week PA, even when PA introduced after 6 months of 12 month study Goodpaster 2010

  24. Aerobic Exercise and Weight Gain Prevention (Svetkey, JAMA, 2010) • In BMI over 40: initial weight loss greater if PA included at start, but similar at end of 1 year • Either early or late PA: reduced visceral abdominal fat, hepatic fat, insulin resistance, and BP • Addition of PA produced greater reduction in waist circumference and hepatic fat • Addition of PA promoted greater weight loss, no matter when introduced

  25. The Effect of PA in the Prevention of Weight Gain • Majority of individuals who lose weight are not able to maintain their weight loss Jeffery, 2000 • Problems with exercise sustainability and compliance well known Katan, 2009 • Home treadmills given free: initial 6 month weight loss could not be sustained at 2 years Jakicic, 2008 • Weight regain after weight loss, regardless of behavioral interventions used to maintain weight loss Svetkey, JAMA, 2008

  26. The Effect of Resistance Training on Weight Loss • Resistance training increases lean muscle mass and decreases fat mass Avila, 2010 • Resistance training increases insulin sensitivity and decreases LDL cholesterol Ibanez, 2010 • In absence of aerobic activity, resistance training plusdietary modification does not increase weight loss compared to diet alone Wing, 1998

  27. Effect of Resistance Training on Weight Loss • Performed 3 times per week, may reduce the metabolic syndrome z-score, with decreases in fasting blood glucose, improvement in body composition and muscle strength • In people with CAD, strength training and aerobic training more effective than aerobic alone in improving body comp and CV fitness Marzolini, 2012

  28. Take Home Messages • We are in the midst of a global obesity epidemic • Low levels PA related to weight gain and increased risk CV disease in men and women • Physical activity reduces health care costs, missed work, and hospitalizations • Increased sitting time is an independent risk factor for the development of metabolic risk factors • Most studies show that exercise has a small, independent effect on body weight, typically less that 3% weight loss… but has significant additive effect when combined with caloric restriction

  29. Take Home Messages • Exercise can help sustain long term weight loss and minimize weight gain over a lifetime, especially if volume in range of 300 min/week • Strength training independent of aerobic exercise has not been shown to produce additional weight loss compared to calorie restriction alone, but does increase lean muscle and produce beneficial metabolic changes • Even in absence of weight loss, exercise has many cardiovascular and metabolic benefits, including decrease in BP, harmful lipids and insulin resistance
